Lots of stories here, 1. Met a Swiss surfer/artist traveling by bike. Painted it himself. We met after he joined my team playing pool. Didn’t help though, we still ended up losing 8-0. At least I had a decent run at ping pong after that winning 2 games to 0. So not all was lost.
2. Found some mud leaving Ghana.
3. Voodoo festival in Benin. Anacondas are sacred to them, and as you can tell 2 of us like snakes. And 1 does not. @camperduintocamperdown
4. Finally a car wash, and some work, oil change, new brakes, and a little custom paint.

3 pictures 3 stories.
1: boat ride out to an island for the day.
2: thanks @docbangobongo @d_c_chap @man_oh_man508 @peshmerga.doc for the training. It’s coming in useful after a small incident with some sea creatures.
3: so over all the rough roads I broke some eggs, beers, and milk cartons in the fridge. All which I would clean up with this towel. Which was fine, until we got to a hotel and I turned off the fridge. After a few days in a hot car I opened the fridge to get the car ready for the road again. The smell was not good. So, cleaned it up in the hotel shower and all’s well.

The cars of Mauritania, it’s amazing any of these are still on the road. Most are sputtering black smoke with no suspension, rust on every panel that they still have and I’m convinced they must be the most stubborn cars on earth. They just won’t roll over and die.
